Why YSK: Beehaw defederated from Lemmy.World and Sh.itjust.works effectively shadowbanning anyone from those instances. You will not be able to interact with their users or posts.

Why?
At the time LW and SJW had few barriers to signing up, so they had a higher rate of spam coming in and the beehaw team said they couldn’t keep up with moderating it. No idea if this is still the case, but they remain federated.
SJW is a wild abbreviation
Oh no, are we calling shitjustworks SJW now??
I thought about that while typing it but I thought it was kinda funny so decided to leave it haha
We need to replace dumb acronyms with better ones, anyway.
Maybe SHJUWO or SHIJUWO
I wonder if that was intentional on the instance owner’s part?
Nah definitely not. I don’t know about the owner but there was definitely too much “debate” on whether to defederate from exploding heads for my liking, felt a little too “free speech-y” so I set up on lemmy.world instead
